The state Division of Motor Vehicles unveiled details of a major expansion of services Thursday, tweaking a preliminary proposal that had created a controversy among some lawmakers.
Department of Transportation Secretary Mark Gottlieb said the expansion leaves all current offices open, increases the total number of offices across the state from 88 to 92 and drastically expands the hours of operation for some 40 counties.

I wonder if our friend TM knows the difference between a preliminary proposal and a finished bill?
Gottlieb said Thursday that politics was never a consideration. He said DOT tweaked the original plan after feedback from lawmakers.
"We listened to the concerns of legislators and others impacted by the potential changes," he said.
And this is why you release a proposal. To get feedback from the community to see if anything is wrong with the proposal, and make needed changes.
They didn't "dump" the idea, they worked to make it better.
The Bush five year study found no such voter problems as you suggest.
Why make laws for a crime that doesnt exist?
Why spend millions when you dont have to?
Show me where the closings were going to take place and then you can show me how it was not poltically motivated.
Let me get this straight. You post that this is political, linking to a teamster's blog, and offer no proof that it is political even after SEVERAL people ask you to prove it. And now when a post shows that it wasn't political you ask for yet more proof to disprove something that you've NEVER GIVEN PROOF for in the first place.
I think the onus is on you to prove that it was politically motivated first, since it was you that made the original UNPROVEN claim.

After it was pointed out to them that closing offices would keep people from being able to vote.
The proposal they first proffered would have and people pointed it out so they changed the plan huh?

No, it was after it was pointed out that the proposal would leave some areas without motor vehicle services.
And, come to think of it, you never did get around to explaining how the closure of these offices would keep the Democratic voters from getting ID's, while the Republican voters in the same towns would have no such problems. How about filling us in on that?

You really dont understand?
When you cut them predomantly Dem areas it comes out in the republican partys favor.
That was the whole point

So you lied?
Prove it was NOT politically motivated.
They had to change it for some reason huh?
Why did they change the law after people called it political?
